Thank you gentlemen for the quick responses. I sent Kirill an e-mail, asking where I can buy his book.
Regards,
Teodor

Teodor,
Just go there:
http://museummilitary.com/ru
and order #4 and #7: these are Kirill's books on Caucasian weapons.
I hope your Russian is good enough to navigate the site.
I have spare copies of #4: history of Caucasian warfare and weapons. If you need one, send me a PM.
#7 just came out: more of a technical one, pinpointing details attributable to certain times and localities of manufacture . Very useful.

Ariel,

Thank you or the link: I already visited the site, but found only #4. I cannot find #7, which if I unerstand correctly is the actual collector's guide.

This one is in the military museum of Thessaloniki in Greece.

Thank you Eftihis,

Nice dagger and quite an eclectic display of items from the Western all the way to the Eastern borders of the Ottoman Empire.

This is somewhat off topic, but how large is the Military Museum in Thessaloniki, and is it worth making a trip from Sofia one day to just see it? Is it dedicated to the Greek struggle for independence in parts of Macedonia and Southern Thrace, or is the emphasis on the Balkan and World Wars?
